Nerds & Narwhals Rules

Nerds & Narwhals (always with an ampersand) is a comedy adventure game based off Zork, D&D, and Kingdom of Loathing. A better copy of the rules can be found at the wiki here.

Character Creation
Races

Each race has it's own stat affects. There are many more races/subraces that you could be turned into, but that happens in-game.

* Mean Green Killing Machines(Orcs) + 2 Manliness -2 Charm

Starting Items

Each player starts with a random set of clothing, a random weapon, a random class-based item, a random support item, and three random special items.

Classes

There are usually 10, eight generic, and then two random which are sub-classes of the others. It should be noted that there are no preliminary class restrictions based upon race.

* Brainless Bloodthirster (Warrior): Bonuses where it comes to physical dmg and hardiness, otherwise....G/N/E
* Sneaky Con-artist (Thief): Stealth and Stinginess are their thing, but up front fights, and well.... G/N/E
* Ninja (ranger): Kungpow! Agility and fighting strength! Not as hardy though!G/N/E
* Magical Nerd (Wizard): Super High Damage! Later on.. early game, squishy as jello! G/N/E
* Righteous Fury! (Paladin): He is Hard to kill and somewhat magical! GOOD ONLY!
* The Slightly Lesser Holy Healer (Cleric): Support! Magical and possibly hard to kill! Can be G/N/E
* Grand Treehugger (Druid): Magical, cannot use or wear anything metal, only neutral! Hard to play
* Bodyguards (Guardian): A Tank! Super Hard to kill, lacking in other category's G/N/E

Special Classes

* Show Off Sorcerer (Illusionist): This one will be the hardest to play, but very good later. Even more magic based than the Magical Nerd G/N/E
* Magitech Engineer: He combines future,modern, and magical powers into one! Very General in abilities, can do high damage! G/N/E

Class Alignments

G=Good N=Neutral E=Evil
Some are available to be all classes, but some are more likely to be certain ones! A class with all available alignments can twist and turn their abilities to match an alignment, like if they were an Evil Cleric, instead of healing wounds they would cause wounds! here

Thank you I was going to do it eventually, ooh, a wiki!
